Passione members running around their base, killing ordinary citizens... Either they're trying to kill the boss, and cutting off his escape, or they already did it, and are cleaning up.

History

JORGE JOESTAR

Prosciutto and other Passione members jump into Morioh

In July 2012, Nero Nero Island, where the base of Passione is located, suddenly grows legs and starts moving through the ocean headed toward Morioh. Some ordinary citizens panic and attempt to escape at the island's harbor. Prosciutto, Cioccolata ^{(Universe 37)}, Secco ^{(Universe 37)}, Pesci ^{(Universe 37)}, Ghiaccio ^{(Universe 37)}, and Melone ^{(Universe 37)} ambush and murder them. Secco's Evil Dead conceals the harbor, making their actions invisible to those within the island, such as Bruno Bucciarati ^{(Universe 37)}. One man manages to escape and tries waving desperately toward Morioh for help before he is killed as well.

The Mafia members move the bodies out of sight by dropping the bodies in the water between the boats, or by tossing them into the tall grass by the side of the road to the harbor. Nero Nero Island suddenly crashes into the barrier surrounding Morioh and flips upward. Its propulsion causes it to tear through the barrier and lands into Morioh Harbor.

Cioccolata and the others start firing bullets and rocket launchers at random civilians and houses in Morioh, attempting to shoot Jorge Joestar as well when he runs by underneath them. The mafia members then jump off the island and head to Budogaoka gymnasium with several weapons.

Bucciarati later reveals that they swore an oath not to kill any civilians. He thanks Jorge for informing him of the secret betrayal from those members and presumably deals with them afterwards.
